Is Licks Immunity safe for my cat's eye & respiratory issues?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Male | neutered | 18 lbs

My cat suffers from dark eye discharge that I believe is related to respiratory issues. I previously asked a question about him here before and I was told that respiratory problems are often chronic and he could benefit from supplements. I wanted to know if Licks Immunity Disease Defense Cat Supplement would be good to give him. It seems to be specifically for respiratory health. Also, are there any risks I should be aware of? I don't want to give him something that could make him sick.

Yes, this blend of lysine, taurine and b/c vitamins may well be of benefit in promoting his natural immunity and unless he is sensitive to any of the ingredients (very rare) there should be no adverse effects! A probiotic such as fortiflora can also be helpful in restoring natural balance and can have benefits beyond the bowel!
